Hopefully we will see it on the 4 series cars that will be displayed at the GENEVA International Motor Show.
I'm also leaning towards this trim as well. BMW will be making the debut of the 4 series LCI.

It might be, but on the configurator on the UK website which has been updated to the LCI, there is a notable difference on the picture when changing from the standard to the adaptive headlights. Standard looks like the bixenon but with a wider lens and when changed to the adaptive, they are the hexagon ones. Although I would be thrilled if it was like on that link about the F30, since I ordered the standard ones.

The standard LEDs may look fine, but functionally they stink (unless BMW has made a big improvement). The adaptive LEDs are a must option. I have been kicking myself for months and months for just settling for the standard LEDs on my LCI 2016 F31. Many threads out there on this subject.

Yep, that's unfortunately true. It's not only noticeable within the configurator but it is stated in the new LCI brochure that hexagons come only with the Adaptive options. Also, the beam is different - standard is weaker than the adaptive.

Looks better here than in the press release. Looks so similar to Long Beach.

It looks like it, but it's a bit light isn't it? But fu....ck this color is soooo nice Now i'll suffer even more for next 5 weeks

What color is the blue behind it! Thats more my speed. Also would like to know wheel/tire size.
Also this vid seems to confirm that the Night Blue interior doesnt extend to the dash like other colors/series which is very VERY disappointing Makes no sense....

[prguy]

Hopefully there are better pictures of the dark carbon interior trim.... this one seems too light. If it is like that, I am not a fan.

Blame the bright LED lights that are hitting the car. It creates hot spots and so it's hard to really see how dark/light is the interior.

I was set on Estoril Blue, but after I saw the first pictures of Snapper Blue I placed my order of a GC with Snapper Blue/Midnight Blue Dakota. So yes the wait now begins.

Thanks for the picture, I am just so torn between this and the anthracite trim which I already ordered. I've always ordered wood since I like the classy look but thinking about going a more sporty style this time around. That picture does help but I wanna see a close up to see the pattern though.

It's a 430i Gran Coupe on Carbon Black with black interior and fineline anthracite trim. As of packages it has the M sport and premium package, also added the apple carplay. I think thats about it. As of trims, at first I picked the Ash grain but then changed it to anthracite to break the monotony of everything black and dark inside but still ain't quite sure.

Edit:

Yep, you were right, just took this photo from a video which I think really shows it off. Guess I'll have to call my vendor tomorrow

great,
I placed my order GC with the Snapper Rocks Blue & Midnight Blue interior, just like the video above with the new Carbon Aluminum trim.
I was so set on Storil Blue but the pictures and videos that were posted yesterday made me change my mind.

I think i'm off of the night blue interior. It looks more purple than blue and it also doesnt seem to extend to the dash and glove in the 4 series for some reason. It definitley does on the 5. Bummer.
